Whatever that thrush thing is feels 10x more gross than the pipe

[flexagoon]

Not if you consider that the linked repo requires you to use asPipe on all functions first. So it's this:

  const greeting = thrush(
    'hello',
    s => s.toUpperCase(),
    s => s + '!!!'
  );

Vs this:

  const upper = asPipe(s => s.toUpperCase())
  const ex = asPipe((s) => s + '!!!')
  const greeting = pipe('hello')
    | upper
    | ex
  await greeting.run()

(And that doesn't work in reality, as the top comment here notes)

Thrush is the "T combinator" - I believe that the "Thrush" name comes from To Mock a Mockingbird by Raymond Smullyan [1].
